History
Established in 1985.
Lampshades Unlimited was started by a gentleman named Larry Berkelhammer.
Larry sold it to Kay Lowe, who had been making beautiful custom lampshades for him. Kay loved making lampshades and helping customers, and was beloved by many in her community. She expanded the store to it's current size, and encouraged her son Jeff to be the expert repair technician that he is. Tragically, she passed away in 2015. Her loss was deeply felt, and we still trade our memories of her with clients and friends to this day.
In August of 2019, Amber Boggs and her husband David purchased the business, and are overjoyed to be able to carry on Kay's legacy. Amber had been a close friend of Kay's and of her surviving family for many years, and has worked for Lampshades Unlimited since 2000. She has been the manager of the store since 2005, with a brief absence to care for her children. Together with her family, and Jeff, she looks forward to helping others with friendly, quality service for many years to come.
